Our First Year together

The Past: When we stop and look back at where we've come from, or better yet, where God's taken us, we can simply thank God that He did His will for us before He did our will...His will is always the best! We look at the trials He's brought us through...for example, the 6 month delay between graduation and Justin's start date, my job search in Texas while living in Alabama, and the many other unexpecteds of the first year :) But more than that, we are amazed at how He's always been there to bless us and love us along the way. For example, the many times the bank account had more than my balanced checkbook showed, or the job offer that came when none were listed on the website, and lets not forget the 5 random jobs God gave to us while we were in Lexington for 6 months...not to mention the 3 healthy nieces and nephew that have been added this past year!!! His blessing are truly countless!!!

The Present: We are speechless. He has given Justin his dream job and has given him success through the first Phase of Pilot training, He's given Rebekah her dream job as a teacher with a higher purpose, and He's given us both more love than we could have ever imagined!!

The Future: God has begun to put specific callings and lessons in our lives. We know that He is constantly preparing us for what's to come, and we want to be ready for wherever He leads. We thank you ahead for the prayers that will cover us now and in the future.
